ANAHEIM -- Jefry Marte clubbed his first career grand slam in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the A's. It was a special moment for Marte, because his mother was in the stands to watch her son play for the first time in the United States.
"I'm very happy," said Marte, who also doubled to finish 2-for-4. "I thank God for the opportunity, and I'm more happy because my mom was watching from the stands."
Marte flashed a smile in the clubhouse after the game as he answered questions about his big night at the plate.
